Romanos 11:28

28 Muchos del pueblo de Israel ahora son enemigos de la Buena Noticia, y eso los beneficia a ustedes, los gentiles. Sin embargo, ellos todavía son el pueblo que Dios ama, porque él eligió a los antepasados Abraham, Isaac y Jacob.

Romanos 11:28 Meaning and Commentary

Romans 11:28

As concerning the Gospel
Whereas it might be objected to the call and conversion of the Jews, their implacable enmity to the Gospel, the apostle replies, by granting, that with respect to that,

they [were] enemies
to God and Christ, to the Gospel, and the ministers of it, and particularly to the apostle:

for your sakes;
the Gentiles, to whom it was preached, and by whom it was received, and which greatly irritated and provoked the Jews; or the sense is, that they were suffered to reject the Gospel, and treat it with hatred and virulence, that by this means it might be taken away from them, and carried to the Gentiles; so that the present enmity of the Jews to the Gospel, turned to the advantage of the Gentiles, and should not hinder the future conversion of God's elect among them in the latter day:

but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers'
sakes;
as many of them as belong to the election of grace, are beloved of God; and will appear to be so, when they are called by grace, as they will be, for the confirming of the promises concerning their future restoration made unto their fathers; not one of which shall ever fall to the ground, or they be deprived of any gifts and blessings of grace, which God has purposed for them, or promised to them, as is clear from what follows:

Romanos 11:28 In-Context

26 Y entonces todo Israel será salvo. Como dicen las Escrituras:
«El que rescata vendrá de Jerusalén
y apartará a Israel
de la maldad.

27 Y mi pacto con ellos es
que quitaré sus pecados»
.

28 Muchos del pueblo de Israel ahora son enemigos de la Buena Noticia, y eso los beneficia a ustedes, los gentiles. Sin embargo, ellos todavía son el pueblo que Dios ama, porque él eligió a los antepasados Abraham, Isaac y Jacob.

29 Pues los dones de Dios y su llamado son irrevocables.

30 Ustedes, los gentiles, antes eran rebeldes contra Dios, pero cuando el pueblo de Israel se rebeló contra él, Dios tuvo misericordia de ustedes y no de ellos.
